Library Catalogs

• EPCC Online Catalog

  Keyword search of the catalog shows only mention of the Water Reclamation plant
  But through Google books:
   
• Power and politics in a Chicano barrio : a study of mobilization efforts and community power in El Paso by Benjamin Marquez.
   
• Fifty-Two Years a Newsman PN 4874.H63 A34 has good amount of pages on Fred Hervey as well as footnotes to explore. I found this through google books (http://books.google.com) which shows how useful that source is!

• UTEP Library Catalog

  • Keyword search shows nothing.
     

• El Paso Public Library Catalog

  Keyword search shows nothing.  But you need to check the Vertical File and the Newspaper index at the Border Heritage Center, downtown public library.

Google Books

EPPL: Border Heritage Center

• Call and ask the staff before you go down (915-543-5440), if there is an entry in their vertical file.  This is a collection of photocopied articles on a person or topic.
   
• In addition, check the newspaper card catalog to see other articles available. You would then have to search for the article in the microfilms, ask at the reference desk around the corner from the readers for help.
